saywhat:Very disappointed in subbys today. One of the most significant events in the history of mankind has occurred and there's been no mention of it on FARK. A man made object, Voyager I, has left the confines of our solar system! That's incredible!And FARK ignores it....very disappointing

So, if I'm reading your comment correctly, what you're saying is that Voyager I isn't gay since it clearly did not enter Uranus?

Dingleberry Dickwad:You know, the dude could really have saved himself some trouble and just out and said that he's bisexual, or whatever instead of getting caught with transexuals and cross dressers to try and hide it. Sure there's folks out there that would look down on him for it, but not as many as will look down on him for being in denial and going for trans and the like. I'm not saying anything about any of that is wrong, just that people will look down on him for trying to hide it in cross dressers and so forth rather than just be open about everything.

Well...he's not. As far as I'm aware, there isn't a term for people who are attracted to transsexuals. He's not gay, he's not bisexual, he's not pansexual...there's no English word for his sexual orientation.

That said, dude, just say 'I'm into women and transsexuals' and move on.

runcible spork:In other words, you have no idea how it could possibly be relevant or instructive, regardless of your milquetoast backpedaling. And what's the story with your day-old account?

Well the story behind my day-old account is that I signed up a day ago. And in other words, I was making a joke that I have no idea how to classify blowing a shemale on the side of the road in binary sexual terms, because I thought it would be funny. Since you found my joke neither relevant nor instructive, I will do better in the future to make much more relevant, instructive jokes that are tailored specifically to your sensibilities.

I think I've grown a lot here as a person here in my one day. Thank you.

runcible spork:Since when is "a transsexual" [sic] "a man who looks like a woman"? What kind of personal, exculpatory bullshiat is that?

Hardinparamedic: I implore you once more, considering your clearly evident empathy and interest, and mostly nuanced understanding, to be more thoughtful with regard to terminologysuch as "transgendered," "transgenders," "a transsexual."

I hope there is equal thought given to people who think they are 25 in a 40 year old body, and that we should develop the medical technology to help these people.

enderthexenocide:if you're a man and you're gay, it means you want to have sex with other men, right? it doesn't mean you like to stick things in your butt. you can want to stick things in your butt, that doesn't mean you are physically attracted to men.

Orson Scott Card-derived username, strong indications of anal fetish... but you want us to think you're not so far back in the closet there's a faun and a lamppost?

When drinking in NYC many years ago, we'd always have this one guy who had to visit the tunnel rats over on the west side, one time he came running out of a building screaming and said if we ever talked about his experience he'd get even.
